A Novel Therapeutic Approach for Preventing and Treating Atherosclerosis
The proposed technology relates to prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis using inhibiting or reducing the level of carbamylation of various circulating proteins. The technology suggests a method of determining whether an individual is at risk for atherosclerosis, by measuring the level of carbamylated LDL in the individual sample. It suggests a method of assessing the effectiveness of a treatment for atherosclerosis by monitoring carbamylated LDL and/or antibody to carbamylated LDL in said sample. It further provides a method of reducing carbamylation by treating treating said individual with enzymatic or non-enzymatic inhibitors of carbamylation.
